[QUOTE="Waggytails, post: 2612202, member: 498881"] Having had my friend since 1961 I've grown up following low sugars good, highs bad. I'm now 65yrs and have been told by a diabetes GP that I mustn't keep my sugars so low, 4's 5's...get it to 7 and above! Otherwise I am at risk of developing dementia and any other memory/cognitive functions. It's logical I suppose as we are starving our brains of sugar. My memory is fine in the shorter term but things I've experienced and places I've been in all these years are erratic in recalling, if at all. Perhaps he's right then. But it makes even more of a juggling act and is hard to do as I've spent 63yrs following the opposite mantra! [/QUOTE]
